Respect freedesktop's XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_DATA_HOME #791

Open ainola opened 6 years ago

ainola commented 6 years ago

Thanks for this tool!

Linux configuration and data storage should reside in XDG_CONFIG_HOME (~/.config/ if the env variable is not set) and XDG_DATA_HOME (~/.local/share/ if the env variable is not set). This will provide consistency with other programs. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gam/ should house actual configuration files (for instance, gam.cfg, which would have items like check_updates = false or member_max_results = 200). $XDG_DATA_HOME/gam/ should house the oauth tokens, etc. and should be mode 0700.

Keeping this structure will also allow proper sandboxing when the user wants it.

This is absolutely still relevant.

This issue is still relevant. This is related to #792 though and I'm honestly not sure why I split this into two tickets. Perhaps they should be merged.

GAM7 now supports storing config in a folder specified by the GAMCFGDIR env variable. PTAL and see if this solves this issue.
